Is "Smart Apparel" the Future of Fashion? (Take a Poll)

Check this out! These are the first "smart" shoes - the color and pattern generated by e-ink can be changed with a signal from your smartphone to a Bluetooth receiver built into the sole!

The Volvorii Timeless design team built the shoe prototype to compete for The Louis Vuitton Prize, and used crowd funding to support the project. Fully functional prototypes have been independently verified by Dragon Innovation in Boston, USA and the first pairs of shoes will ship in December 2015 for $249.

Future potential platforms include bags, purses, hats, dresses, belts, and other accessories as well as non-fashion-related applications.
